Dunno the timing, but he's due to be on today...

I've got the set on mute so I don't have to hear all their ... falderal.

 

[retrorepublican]

I'm watching it. I usually end up missing his live appearances, so I'm looking forward to it.

 

[mdh]

Just said he's gonna be on shortly after this commercial break.

 

[llamabread]

He's on right now.

 

[Melchior]

Thank you, he came out and said it; "I'm more Republican than they are."

His is addressing the argument that Ron Paul's winning in the polls is just a "Sanjaya affect."

 

[retrorepublican]

Amazing. I hope someone recorded that. Definitely had some good moments!

"Saying that they want to silence Ron Paul is like saying that they want to silence the constitution."
Excellent stuff. Good show. I can tell by the fact that the interviewer was talking so fast that he wanted to let Dr. Paul get in as much as possible in the timeslot alotted, which is cool, too!

 

[llamabread]

I thought he did pretty well. Just restated what he's been saying all along, but he was alot more assertive about it this time. Definitaly some good quotes in there.

 

[MsDoodahs]

THANK YOU GOD FOR HEARING MY PRAYER THAT RON WOULD HOLD HIS OWN.

I'm so pleased with how he showed.

He did very well and made a very valid point: Republicans can't win on this foreign policy they have now. It's not flying with moderates on both sides, and it's not flying with Independants.

 

[swatmc]

Just watched it.

Homerun.

Great job Dr. Paul.

He was stressing the fact that they have to start narrowing down the number of candidates. What do you take from that?

Exactly what I've been thinking. The only republican with a chance at the White House is Ron Paul, no question about it.

Video! Video! I've been waiting all day to get my RP fix!

 

[Therion]

Somebody, put it on Youtube.

 

[MsDoodahs]

I've said it before and I will say it again:

There are humans on this earth whose basic belief is this:

"IF I CANNOT RUN IT, I WILL RUIN IT."

The GOP has allowed a faction with that basic belief to get control of their party.

Now, because they KNOW they cannot run the party for too much longer, they are ACTIVELY attempting to DESTROY it.

(edited to add: I am NOT a member of the GOP. I don't care if the party IS destroyed.)

 

[Melchior]

Video! Video! I've been waiting all day to get my RP fix!

It's like he's a drug or something.

Or short bursts of fresh oxygen after breathing methane in the political atmosphere for so long.

Did you really think he wouldn't? Dr. Paul is an excellent speaker, he wouldn't be worth supporting if he wasn't. If you're campaigning on *real issues*, but you can't get your point across effectively, you have no point.
This was a really friendly environment though. The interviewer was really obviously not hostile to us.

 

[AlexAmore]

I wish they would stop inputting how he is "Low in the polls". No point to saying that even if it was true. Ron is winning many polls and the "scientific" polls have flaws too that have been pointed out in this forum previously.

Anyways Ron Paul is the second coming of Christ. It's official.
